The Elms

The Elms is a house with a west wing that has been divided into flats. Some earlier elements from the original farmhouse, which now forms the west wing, are likely still present but have been hidden due to significant remodeling around 1830 when the main front range was added. The building is faced with stucco over stone rubble and has slate roofs featuring shaped brackets at the eaves and lion's head guttering. There are brick stacks at each gable end and a ridge stack.

The principal range is L-shaped, with a side entry on the east and a short west wing that connects to the original farmhouse, which is set at right angles to the main range. The house is two storeys tall with an attic storey. The south front of the principal range has a layout of 3:4:3 bays, with two-storey bows on the left and right topped with conical slate roofs. The central four windows are closely spaced, with the ground storey featuring pilasters between the windows, shaped brackets above supporting a cornice, and small iron balances for the first storey windows. The first-floor windows are 12-paned sashes, while the ground-floor sashes have 6 over 9 panes, mostly retaining their original glass. The four central bays have 4-paned sashes above tall 2 over 3 paned sashes. There are two attic dormers with 4 over 8 paned sashes on consoles supporting gabled roofs.

At the right gable end, there is a doorway with a semicircular hood supported by shaped consoles. Above the door, there is an overlight with marginal glazing bars, flanked by fluted pilasters beside a 2-panelled door with 9 panes and margin bars on the upper half. The left gable end features a quoin pilaster with a Greek key motif at the front corner. To the left, there are two 12-paned sashes flanking a blind window above another 12-paned sash and two narrow 8-paned sashes. The hipped extension at the left end has two 16-paned sashes above a similar sash to the left of two doorways.

Inside, most of the original fittings remain, including a plasterwork cornice in the right-hand principal room, and two large internal Corinthian-style columns in the central room, which also has a late 19th-century tiled grate surround. The stair turret has been demolished. At the rear, there is a lofted dairy block with most fittings intact.
